Here are a couple of free resources. My personal favorite is the five minute joining exercise as proposed by Gary Renard in one of his books on A Course in Miracles. It is on all of his tapes and it is lovely. The biggest issue is always getting one's personal sense of self out of the way.
All spiritual traditions will lead you to this experience if you ask for it within your heart. IMHO, what you are asking for is an interaction with your Higher Self; the Self beyond that which you think you are, and your creator (which you will find there). You find love there too; true unconditional love in these experiences.
One thing to remember is that whatever spiritual dogma, whatever religious tradition a person is raised in, colors their interpretation of the meaning of these experiences. Don't take anyone's interpretation as gospel. Tend to the experience, and let your heart help you find the 'right' interpretation for you. It you find a tradition that works for you, stick with it; but if something about it troubles you in your heart (not your mind or ego, your heart) tread carefully.
One member of this board suggesting listening to Eckhart Tolle's CDs over and over again to find this thexperience . . . . there are many paths to where you want to go. Your best guide is that still small voice within you; it will never leave you, and it is there to guide you on this path. Follow your path, listen to your heart, attend to the path that resonnates for you.
The first step is desire; and you have that.
All the best to you, Belle
